People always ask what is the secret to unlocking the Youtube algorithm and I've always answered,
there is no secret formula. It's whatever youtube wants to promote. You could have the best video ever
but if youtube doesn't want to promote it, you'll only get a couple million views while a video that really
isn't that good gets front page every day for weeks and the video will get 100+ million views.
It's completely controlled and determined by what youtube wants to promote and what they don't.
Here's the latest phenomenon I found that has 120 million views and I'm not being biased, the video
isn't really that amazing or interesting at all. You and I could probably list 100 other videos of the same
niche that are way funnier and has better content but here's an example of a case where this video
for SOME REASON has been on the front pages of youtube for about a year. Watch it yourself and
judge if that's a video that is really worth 120 million views and has a secret formula to it. It doesn't.
I've seen a lot of videos in this niche for years and this isn't anywhere close to being in a top 100 or 1000 list
for me.
You'll notice whenever you go to the youtube home page (especially when you are not logged in to an account)
you'll constantly be seeing some channel that keeps getting promoted by youtube in the top 8 videos at the front
page. It's annoying because I may not even watch any of their videos or like that stuff but youtube keeps promoting
it for some reason at the front page and it has nothing to do with me or my interests or my history. I've tried for years
to find a way to block or prevent youtube from showing me certain channels but there is no way. The only way is
if you log into your own account. But when you are not logged into an account, the default youtube front page
will always push whatever they want to push in your face even if the videos/channel isn't even that good (but
has millions of views because anything you put constantly on the front page will get millions of views and subs).
People don't seem to get this and it's true. I said the same thing about TV before internet. You could literally make
anyone famous or anything famous if you wanted if you just kept putting on tv for everyone to see.
